Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Chapter 424: Chapter 124 Perfect Condition of the Spirit Plant

Time flies swiftly.

In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed…

During this half-year, the Black Shark Gang had not given up on searching for those few people.

It was said that the Black Shark Gang Leader, in order to find them, had issued a bounty in the Qi Hall, vowing to locate those individuals.

Furthermore, the bounty had already spread throughout the Thousand Islands Domain, sparking heated discussions.

However, the Thousand Islands Domain was a place with a mixture of good and bad people, and although the message of the Black Shark Gang’s search reached many, most did not take any real action.

After all, within the vast Demonic Monster Sea, if someone really wanted to hide, they wouldn’t be easily found by the Black Shark Gang.

Of course, there would undoubtedly be some who were tempted by the bounty and continued to inquire about the whereabouts of these individuals…

As for the place where Lin Jing and his companions resided, it was now the forbidden area of Li Yan Island, protected by a Formation, inaccessible to outsiders.

Therefore, they were still quite secure and had not been found.

Apart from the affairs of the Black Shark Gang, there was also the matter of Yue Qiniang preparing for her Tribulation…

Half a year ago, Yue Qiniang had made all necessary arrangements, even handing over the management of Li Yan City to a trustworthy individual.

After that, she began her final retreat before her Tribulation, waiting only to come out and start preparations for advancing to the Golden Core Stage.

Since Yue Qiniang’s aptitude was not very good, her retreat this time was relatively long.

Even now, she had not emerged.

Not long ago, Lin Jing had specifically gone to visit Yue Qiniang once.

During that time, Lin Jing simply stayed outside her closed-door training chamber and felt her Cultivation released in the atmosphere.

Lin Jing knew that Yue Qiniang’s retreat was likely nearing its end.

Thus, he made a special trip out to select a location for her to undergo her Tribulation.

And Zhang Jian had visited once as well.

Learning that Yue Qiniang was about to come out, he also went to prepare the Formation Flags needed for the Formation, waiting only for Yue Qiniang to emerge, then they could head to the island Lin Jing had chosen to set up the Formation directly…

……

At this moment, Yue Qiniang still had not emerged, and Lin Jing utilized this time to stay busy inside the System Space.

During this period, Lin Jing practiced Yue Qiniang’s Shenglin Revival Wood Technique, applying it to those high-grade Spiritual Plants within the System Space.

He found out that the results were truly remarkable…

Although it was within the System Space, these Spiritual Plants still encountered various issues during their growth.

These issues were unavoidable.

Using the Shenglin Revival Wood Technique, however, could repair these issues, enabling the Spirit Plants to reach a perfect state and accelerate their maturity time.

With constant practice during this time, Lin Jing had finally completely mastered this Spell.

Right then, Lin Jing was beside that Eternal Life Vine, using the Shenglin Revival Wood Technique to repair some fine veins within the vine.

The more advanced the Spirit Plant, the more complex its veins and the more difficult it was to repair. Lin Jing had to conduct numerous experiments before daring to attempt repairing the Eternal Life Vine…

Lin Jing operated the Shenglin Revival Wood Technique, turning it into a thread of vitality, and sent it into the interior of the Eternal Life Vine.

He also had to extend his Divine Sense, carefully guiding that thread of vitality as it slowly moved inside the plant.

If he encountered any fine veins that were damaged or faced other obstructions, he would use the vitality generated by Shenglin Revival Wood Technique to heal the plant…

This process was like treating a person whose capillaries were slightly damaged.

This step was extremely draining on Divine Sense.

And the progress was extremely slow.

Before this, Lin Jing had spent four hours just to repair less than two inches.

Yet even those four hours had exhausted his Divine Sense, forcing him to stop and rest.

This was only possible because Lin Jing practiced the Dao Hua Fen Shen, making his Divine Sense much stronger than that of average Cultivators.

That’s how he was able to persist for so long.

If it were another Cultivator, they probably wouldn’t last even an hour.

……

Repeatedly doing so over time, Lin Jing nonetheless reaped some rewards.

Aside from accelerating the growth of the Spiritual Plants, Lin Jing’s Divine Sense had also noticeably strengthened during this period.

Because using the Shenglin Revival Wood Technique to repair the Spirit Plants consumed Spirit even more than Alchemy did, it had a significant strengthening effect on Divine Sense.

After constantly healing for a while, Lin Jing distinctly felt his Divine Sense had strengthened considerably compared to before.

Lin Jing’s Divine Sense was already comparable to that of a Golden Core Peak Cultivator, and after continuous tempering over this period,

he now only needed an opportunity to break through the limitation of the Golden Core Peak and reach the Nascent Soul Stage.

However, such an opportunity was not readily available…

Now, Lin Jing could only wait patiently.

…

…

After another four hours of continuous repairs, Lin Jing’s Divine Sense gradually reached the brink of exhaustion.

At that time, the Eternal Life Vine was almost completely repaired.

Only one last point of disconnected veins was left.

Lin Jing operated the Shenglin Revival Wood Technique, and with his Divine Sense, he carefully controlled the vitality force, moving it to that point of disconnected veins, cautiously making the repairs.

In this way, the veins slowly repaired and healed.

After a quarter of an hour, the veins were completely repaired.

It was at that moment that the System prompt sounded:

“Ding!”

“Congratulations to the Host, for nurturing the Eternal Life Vine to a perfect state, doubling the growth rate of the Eternal Life Vine.”

The Spirit Plants repaired using Shenglin Revival Wood Technique would enter a perfect state, thus doubling the growth rate.

Although this effect of doubling the growth rate might not be substantial for low-tier Spirit Plants, it was different for high-grade ones.

Take the Eternal Life Vine, for instance; it originally would take ten thousand years to mature, but after using Shenglin Revival Wood Technique, its growth time was halved, reducing it by a solid five thousand years…

This was indeed a significant gain.

However, the higher the grade of the Spirit Plant, the more time and effort it would take to repair.

Just this single Eternal Life Vine took Lin Jing over a month to repair…

……

Thereafter.

Lin Jing summoned the System, and instantly, a panel appeared above the Eternal Life Vine, and Lin Jing directly started to check the status of this millennium vine.

Eternal Life Vine (Fifth-Rank) (Perfect)

Current Environment: Immortal Crossing Island.

Environment Match, Perfect State, Rapid Growth, Time Remaining until Maturity: 4996 years.

……

Even in its perfect state, the millennium vine still required 5000 years of growth time.

For a Golden Core Cultivator with a lifespan of at most five hundred years or even a Nascent Soul Cultivator with a thousand years, waiting for the millennium vine to mature was simply impossible.

No wonder higher-rank Spiritual Plants are rarer—the cultivation of such a plant without the efforts of several generations is practically unfeasible.

Perhaps only those long-established large Sects would engage in such endeavors.

Lin Jing, because of the existence of System Space, needed much less time for cultivation.

But still, even with the fivefold Flow of Time Speed boost of a Level 5 System Space, it would take a thousand years for the millennium vine to mature.

Such a long time, Lin Jing certainly could not afford to wait; only by using the Spiritual Plant Acceleration function might it be feasible.

And using the Spiritual Plant Acceleration function required a considerable amount of Harvest Points…

Therefore,

Lin Jing still needed to try to obtain as many Harvest Points as possible.

In this way, no matter what Elixir Medicine he needed to refine, as long as he needed Spiritual Plants, he could directly hasten their maturity, without having to wait such long periods…

After checking the growth status of the millennium vine, Lin Jing immediately closed the System’s panel.

By now, his Divine Sense was almost exhausted, and even his head felt a bit heavy.

What Lin Jing most needed now was to meditate and recover as quickly as possible.

Meditating in System Space was certainly not an option.

The Flow of Time in System Space was meant for Alchemy and couldn’t be wasted so casually…

Thereafter.

Lin Jing immediately summoned the System and left System Space, then started to sit cross-legged in the Alchemy Room at the mountain peak to recover…

……

He didn’t know how long he had sat in meditation, but as Lin Jing was restoring himself, he suddenly felt a disturbance in the Formation guarding the northern forbidden area of Li Yan Island.

This disturbance abruptly awakened Lin Jing from his meditative state.

Upon being awakened, Lin Jing’s brows furrowed slightly, then he extended his Divine Sense outside of the Formation.

When he sensed the person outside the Formation, Lin Jing immediately relaxed.

It turned out that the person outside the Formation was none other than Zhang Jian, who was currently standing outside, looking into the Formation.

Clearly, Zhang Jian had been stopped by the Formation.

Seeing this, Lin Jing took out an Array Plate from his Storage Bag, then infused Spiritual Power into it, and in an instant, a Formation prototype appeared above the Array Plate.

After a series of manipulations, a doorway appeared on the prototype.

Then,

Lin Jing stood up and left the Alchemy Room.

By then, the heaviness he had felt had disappeared, and Lin Jing had recovered about seventy to eighty percent.

Presumably, a considerable amount of time had passed.

Upon leaving the Alchemy Room, Lin Jing looked up to the south.

Soon enough, he saw a figure flying on a sword toward him.

This person was Zhang Jian.

Upon seeing Lin Jing, Zhang Jian descended directly in front of him.

As soon as he saw Lin Jing, Zhang Jian started to complain:

“Brother Lin…”

“Seeing you is indeed difficult…”

“Why do you encompass the whole of the northern part of Li Yan Island? If someone didn’t know better, they might think there’s some rare treasure hidden here.”

Lin Jing replied with a smile:

“I merely dislike being disturbed…”

To Lin Jing’s response, Zhang Jian could only purse his lips and say nothing more.

Lin Jing then inquired:

“Brother Zhang, how’s the preparation for the Formation Flags needed for the array?”

Zhang Jian replied with a laugh:

“Don’t worry, everything is ready. We’re just waiting for Yue Qiniang to come out of her retreat, and then we can directly head to the Tribulation.”

Lin Jing nodded and then said:

“Brother Zhang, let’s go…”

“First, let’s go inside the house, brew a pot of tea, and we can chat while we drink…”

Zhang Jian responded:

“Sure…”

“I can’t miss out on the Spiritual Tea cultivated by Yue Qiniang.”

Saying this, the two men walked towards the small courtyard on the mountain peak where Lin Jing resided…

Once inside the house, Lin Jing brewed the Spiritual Tea, pouring a full cup for each of them.

Then,

Zhang Jian, unable to wait any longer, immediately picked up the teacup and took a sip. After finishing, he let out a satisfied sigh:

“Ah…”

“This Spiritual Tea, worthy of being specially cultivated using the Shenglin Revival Wood Technique, has a fragrance that surpasses other teas by far.”

“Moreover…”

“The Spiritual Power contained within it is incomparable to that of other Spiritual Teas…”

“The only pity is that the Shenglin Revival Wood Technique is too draining to use for cultivating Spiritual Tea—it seems wasteful…”

“If it were me, I definitely wouldn’t have the heart to do so…”
